First Line: “’Hold it!’ A voice commanded.”
“Cate, Renee, and
Abby have come to New York
Cate has just
been named the features editor of Gloss, a high-end lifestyle magazine. It’s a
professional coup,. But her new job comes with more complications than Cate
ever anticipated.
Her roommate
Renee will do anything to nab the plum job of beauty editor at Gloss. But snide
comments about Renee’s weight send her
into an emotional tailspin. Soon she is taking black market diet pills, despite
the racing heartbeat and trembling hands that signal she’s heading for read
danger.
Then there’s
Abby, whom they take in as a third roommate. Once a joyful graduate student
working as a nanny part time, she abruptly fled a seemingly happy life in D.C
suburbs. No one knows what shattered Abby- or why she left everything she once
loved behind.
Pekkanen’s most
compellingly, true-to-life novel yet tells the story of three very different
women as they navigate the complications of careers and love- and find the
lifeline they need in each other.”
My Rating: 5/5
Hey there book reading people (poetry to your ears, I know), I come
baring a wonderful novel about the adventure of three girls who find themselves
and by doing so find each other. It was a heartfelt novel that left the reader
satisfied. I loved that while all the characters were relatable they were all
very different so you didn’t have to feel like you were left out of anything. I
also feel that this chicklit has more suspense than others I’ve read, it’s not
over the top drama just suspense. Honestly, I fell in love with the characters
in this novel and Sarah Pekkanen couldn’t have done a better job of bringing
the magazine world to our everyday world. Incredible.
THANK YOU SARAH PEKKANEN FOR SHOWING US THAT ITS FAR MORE IMPORTANT TO
BE OURSELVES THAN ANYONE ELSE!
Thanks for reading,
Love,
Sidny xoxo
